You're still trying to miscategorize others' opinions, when they were clearly stated and clarified for you. The outrage for many was that he league and media target the Pats almost exclusively when manufactoring ****storms. That is what we were arguing against. When that was one's position, it is not hypocritical to think that such things should be applied evenly. Much like using loaded terms and insults, misrepresenting the opposing viewpoint is another sign that you are wrong.
Not tossing out red herrings of my own at all. I've refrained my OP once already after posting it. The three examples that I gave out should not have been ****storms but became that way because Goodell is hell bent on leaving his own stamp on the league. This one is no different. That's the problem. None of the four examples, including this, should become ****storms. That's the issue with his regime and why he's such an awful commissioner. And, let's be honest, people are only wishing for this here because of schadenfreude. That's it. It's not about applying the pubishment evenly or else there would be no "fine him $1M and take their first rounder away" jokes.
For the record, I am a hypocrite, as is every human I've ever gotten to know, but I am constantly striving to be less of one. That said, my behavior in this situation is far from hypocritical.
It only is if you never whined about the Pats being unfairly targeted and punished. If you didn't, then you're not being a hypocrite here by hoping this turns into an unneeded ****storm.
